Dude, I called you last week, but I guess you were busy. When are you getting your car back from Whodeannie's? You car has been in primer as long as #020. LOL.

Well I was by told by 1 member that someone is always right and another member to just to let it go. So Merry Christmas
And one more thing - I guess I don't understand why this is in the construction zone - anyone care to let me in on the secret.[This message has been edited by ferrobi (edited 12-18-2011).]

Yes, and if (you're) proud of your replica-I think you should do the same. However, to answer your question thoroughly. #011 isn't the bomb for there are countless chop tops out there that are far better looking than #011 and hopefully, they'll be others soon that will add to the Chop top Chronicles. However, getting back to #011. Actually, #011 is a combination of various ideas that prompted me in this direction and The GBCT was one of those paths. The side vents was a frustrated course taken from the 90s when side vent kits were being made. I never liked the vents sticking outside the car so I inverted mine. I avoided the silliness of those who placing Ferrari badges on the outside and on top of a 2.8 engine. 
All you need to do is be "original" and use your brain when it comes to keeping the Fiero alive. Instead of a stock Fiero with Ferrari badges’ (I've seen it done here) keep the brand alive by going beyond what the original bean counters wanted. Tweak it and be proud of your (own) ideas or at least enhancing something that was over looked. I'm very happy when people ask me what my car is.
The car is badge accordingly and I proudly stand by the badging with my head held high. I can walk a person through and show them what GM didn't do and show them what they should've done. People actually tell me that, "This is what Pontiac should've made." Granted, if I wasn’t living in CA I’d be sporting a LS7 by now.
Hopefully, #004, #025 will start posting once they get possession of their chop tops.[This message has been edited by madcurl (edited 12-17-2011).]

The only "lameness" is that I"m in contact with several chop top owners on a regular basis (now that is lame, hehe). I like to know what they are doing, what they're planning, and why aren't they driving their choptops! Which remind me. I need to call #016 owner.

I called Cornersonallrails and he's going to post experiences (he already told me the stories and they were good) and maybe some chopper snow pics.  I need my chopper drug fix.

No. Just of ideas. But enough about me, what about you're stories. You need to tell us what new ideas you've come up with on your car.
